Soldier's wife weeps over his coffin on airport tarmac: 'This goes on every day'

Profoundly moving images of a grieving wife slumped over the casket of her Green Beret husband have been seen by nearly 1 million Facebook users.

Lisa Williams filmed the weeping widow from the window of a jetliner at Raleigh-Durham International Airport in North Carolina last week. Passengers had been asked to stay seated while the woman was escorted off the plane.

"It was an honor to fly home with this PATRIOT! God bless his wife and family. There was not a dry eye around me," Williams wrote on Facebook.

On her cell phone video, Williams can be heard sniffling and crying as the scene unfolded under a light rain. "I cried like a baby," she told Inside Edition. "A lady behind me said 'Another angel is coming home.'''

Williams said the widow had reached out to her and thanked her for the video. "She wanted people to realize that this goes on every day," Williams told WNCT-TV.
